GP2 is a free-running 32-bit microsecond hardware counter. Both the mvm
and mld PTP code convert a u32 GP2 value to nanoseconds with

	gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC

NSEC_PER_USEC is a plain 'long' (1000L), so on 32-bit builds the
multiplication is performed in 32-bit arithmetic and overflows once the
GP2 value exceeds ~4.29 million microseconds (~4.3 s). Since GP2 wraps
only every 2^32 microseconds (~71.5 min), the product is truncated for
almost the entire counter range, producing bogus PTP timestamps.

Most conversions in the same files already cast to u64 first
((u64)gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC); a handful of sites (the adjfine path, the
stored scale_update_gp2 and the monitor/RX timestamp path) simply missed
the cast. These patches add the missing u64 casts so the multiplications
are done in 64-bit, matching the existing call sites. 64-bit builds are
unaffected. The mld driver inherited the same pattern (and bug) from
mvm, so it is fixed in a separate patch with its own Fixes: tags.

Found by code inspection; not tested on 32-bit hardware. The change is a
straightforward u64 cast matching the surrounding code.

GP2 is a free-running 32-bit microsecond hardware counter. The PTP code
converts a u32 GP2 value to nanoseconds as:

	gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC

NSEC_PER_USEC is a plain 'long' (1000L), so on 32-bit builds this
multiplication is evaluated in 32-bit arithmetic and overflows once the
GP2 value exceeds ~4.29 million microseconds (~4.3 s). GP2 wraps only
every 2^32 microseconds (~71.5 min), so the product is truncated for
almost the entire counter range, producing bogus PTP timestamps.

Neighbouring conversions already cast to u64 first (e.g.
(u64)gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC); these sites just missed the cast. Cast to u64
so the multiplication is performed in 64-bit, matching the existing call
sites. 64-bit builds are unaffected.

GP2 is a free-running 32-bit microsecond hardware counter. The PTP code
converts a u32 GP2 value to nanoseconds as:

	gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC

NSEC_PER_USEC is a plain 'long' (1000L), so on 32-bit builds this
multiplication is evaluated in 32-bit arithmetic and overflows once the
GP2 value exceeds ~4.29 million microseconds (~4.3 s). GP2 wraps only
every 2^32 microseconds (~71.5 min), so the product is truncated for
almost the entire counter range, producing bogus PTP timestamps.

Neighbouring conversions already cast to u64 first (e.g.
(u64)gp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC); these sites just missed the cast. Cast to u64
so the multiplication is performed in 64-bit, matching the existing call
sites. 64-bit builds are unaffected.
